18 USC 3288 is said card that extends SOL.
The prejudice part is that, if it had been dismissed with prejudice, that would qualify as
"or some other reason that would bar a new prosecution."
that would stop the savings statute from taking effect.

The sheer fucking laziness behind all of this.
HUGE development IN hearing for Comey selective prosecution motion, It turns out that the grand jury NEVER saw the operative indictment. Whole separate basis for dismissal. Standby for more.

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The closest pop culture piece to it I can think of is Kung Fu Hustle: both are simultaneously parodies and tributes to a dozen different things, while also being something completely unique and wonderful in their own right.

I just tried Durbin's DC office and the line played a "we can't come to the phone right now" message and then hung up, no VM opportunity.

"Sens. Jacky Rosen (Nev.), Tammy Baldwin (Wis.), Mark Kelly (Ariz.),Jon Ossoff (Ga.), Gary Peters (Mich.) &Dick Durbin (Ill.) were among the Democrats who participated in secretive negotiations to end the shutdown & are considered possible “yes” votes for the deal."
